No notification sound/alert for Messages Running IOS 16.2 here on iPhone 14 Plus. If the screen is off, I am not getting any messages notification sounds/alerts. The messages do show up in notification center and lock screen but with my screen off, I have missed a ton of SMS and iMessage ones because my phone did not ring and also my Apple Watch did not notify me, so same behaviour on Apple Watch. I did file a report on bug report but curious if anyone has had this. I remember on the previous iOS 16 there were no issues like this.

How can I fix text message alert issues on my iPhone 14? I have an iPhone 14 and I do not hear my alert tone for text messages. I have checked and Bluetooth is connected to my iPhone and Apple Watch. There are no other devices connected. Why don’t I hear my alerts? I have power the phone on and off I have also tried changing the alert tone and nothing seems to work. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Check if Hide Alerts have been activated for one or more of your SMS conversations. Look for a small "crossed out bell". out of the conversations.

You deactivate Hide Alerts by swiping from left to right on the conversation in the overview and tapping the purple bell.
